The golden shovels in the dirt today at the future site of the Lake Myrtle Sports Complex could only mean one thing: Groundbreaking! With about 100 people looking on, County Commissioners, officials from the City of Auburndale and Polk County Tourism & Sports Marketing officially broke ground to begin construction on the massive sports complex in Auburndale. It was a lot more than a groundbreaking though-there were hot air balloons on site to take people up in the air to get a view from above of the huge site. Click here for some photos of the big event. Remember to keep checking back here for updates on construction and new developments as the Grand Opening gets closer.

    I would like to know how far this complex is from Tampa Fl. My grandson plays soccer for Land O Lakes team. When will complex be finished?
    Thank You

    The Lake Myrtle Sports Complex is about a 25-30 minute drive from Tampa. It is right off of the Polk Parkway (off of I-4). The baseball fields just opened this past weekend and the soccer fields will be ready later this year.
